Arrival by public transport
Regional bus stop Forchach village
The starting point for your hike to the Schwarzhanskarspitze is Forchach.
From the parking lot, walk east through the village to the edge of the forest. This is where your trail towards Älpele begins, which crosses a forest path twice, leading you up to Hochstanzer Älpele at 1744 m.
Your path loses itself here in the meadow, aim for a tree slightly to the right of the summit fall line from the hut and after about 50 m you will meet the good path again. This crosses the western slopes of the summit and you have to overcome some rugged sections that lead you to the meadows of the summit structure called "Mahd" and up to the N ridge and over this to the summit.
